A surface probe lands on a highland region of the planet Mercury. A few hours layer the ground beneath the probe gives way ant the probe falls, landing below its original position with a velocity of 11.2 m/s downward. If the free-fall acceleration near mercury's surface is 3.7 m/s2 downward, what is the probes displacement?

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

no. bullets are macro objects. wave nature is for light waves, extremely tiny particles. if a light particle was the size of your finger, the bullet would be the size of the universe. so basically, that huge difference in size makes the wave nature of matter insignificant.
